Before I Met You

Aimless and drifting, living like a tumbleweed
Scattered like leaves in the autumn wind
Miles of questions, all the answers growing thin
That was before I met you, that was before I met you

Roses have perfume and roses have thorns
A pretty patchwork quilt is covering a bed of nails
You say you follow your heart, you know your heart never fails
That was before I met you, that was before I met you

There’s times I wish that things were more simple
Just me alone, like it was before
But there is no amount of money that I’d trade this for
Even if the devil offered more

Pitcher of water turned to bitter red wine
Yes, I had flaws but they were mine
Finding solutions took a long, long time
That was before I met you, that was before I met you

There’s times I wish that things were more simple
Just me alone, like it was before
But there is no amount of money that I’d trade this for
Even if the devil offered more

That was before I met you, that was before I met you
That was before I kissed you
